Soften
At the Park Hyatt Goa Resort and Spa, the Soundarya Ksheera Dhara promises to revitalise and refresh like nothing else, claiming that traditional texts recommend this treatment as one of the best anti-ageing remedies. A gentle scrub using a combination of herbal powders made of red and white sandalwood and turmeric helps to remove dead and dry skin cells, making the skin soft and receptive. Turmeric is an excellent anti-microbial agent and cleanser, while the combination of sandalwood helps soften the skin and improve its texture. The scrub is followed by pouring warm herb and saffron-infused milk all over the body using gentle rhythmic massage movements. This treatment is highly recommended to enhance skin cells’ health and life.

Cleanse
Club Oasis, the Fitness Centre & Spa has a Papaya Body Polish that sheds dead cells and helps exfoliation without irritation. Papaya enzymes dissolve cells while the tiny exfoliating beads whisk them away, sloughing off the dry flaky layers instantly to make skin look young and velvety. The Oatmeal and Honey Body Polish gives you supple skin by drawing out impurities, unclogging pores and removing dry skin. It is great for combination, oily and blemish-prone skin. Alternatively, pamper your skin with the Sea Salt Body Polish. Sea salt facilitates blood circulation, helps the skin breathe freely, thereby causing a natural glow. The fine grains in sea salt cleanse every pore to reveal a younger skin layer. It strengthens and firms skin tissues. Besides, it’s rich in minerals — potassium, magnesium, iodine, zinc and calcium—and also acts as a detoxifier.
